PSA from Josh Davidoff ’18 and Will Barr ’18:

Come over to the West College Cafeteria this Wednesday for a buffet of
all things performative (legit all things). Also come perform! Sign
ups at 8:30pm sharp; show at 9pm.

(we’ve pushed everything back by a half hour in case you want to catch
the beginning of the State of the School by President Roth)

For any new souls, we limit sets to 5 minutes, just to ensure that we
can showcase as many acts as possible. Performers: you can do
ANYthing. Music, poetry, comedy, monologues, rants, ants, pants.
Someone came and did some contact juggling one time and it was sick.
Sometimes cool people with cool instruments jam afterwards.

Date: Wednesday, September 16th
Time: 8:30 PM-10:30 PM
Place: WestCo Cafe
Cost: Your beautiful presence
